editable global mime types for apache (default for all virtual hosts)
By default, apache will return wrong mime types for some file extensions (for examples font files).
We can add additional mime types per website, however we can't edit them globally for all websites via plesk.
We can achieve this by editing /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/mime-types.conf manually from cli, however plesk could provide a more comfortable way to do it.
Please add option to edit global mime types that will be used by all virtual hosts by default and overridden if website has its own instructions.

add switch to enable/disable "restart_apache_gracefully" option via admin ui
By default, every time you modify hosting / apache / nginx or ssl settings for ANY websites, plesk will restart apache server and during that time ALL websites on the server are down returning "Connection time out" or "502 Bad Gateway" errors.
Even if such changes are made by clients from their accounts, all websites will be down during the next restart.
"restart_apache_gracefully" option will help to avoid this and tell apache to reload the config on the fly.
it is not perfect, but it is still better than seeing 502 Bad gateway every n-th seconds on any website on…

Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) - features from Linux to Windows
Please add support for Linux tools (and programming languages, such as Ruby) to Windows through Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) and support for PLESK. Of course in the future. This function, in my opinion, is of great importance and gives Plesk a great advantage.
Windows Server 2016 (1709) supports Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL), Semi-Annual Channel.
Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) will be implemented in all versions of Windows Server 2019.
2 votesI suppose that it would be better to move your hosting to Plesk for Linux if you want to use Linux technologies. Some years ago Apache was supported by Plesk for Windows but it was dropped due to high business cost and insufficient reliability and relevance. Therefore I’m not sure that it is good idea to spread resources to support Linux technologies on Windows servers.
But anyway, thank you for your input! Maybe we will consider this functionality in upcoming releases if it will be popular.
Everyone, please continue voting for this feature if you consider it important.

SSH keys with passphrase protection
Bitbucket repository provides the possibility to generate SSH keys with passphrase protection for better securing.
However, Git extension in Plesk doesn't support passphrase protection and fails with "Permission denied" error.Consider adding passphrase protection as it will increase the security.

Having possibility to add multiple addons to service plans
Hello,
can you consider adding possibility to have one Service Plan Addon to be added multiple times to one subscription?
For example Service plan with 2GB of hosting space could be extended with 5x of 1GB plan addon. This could be used with WHMCS which allows buying configurable options to hosting plans during hosting time period and users could extend their hosting space whenever they need it without changing their hosting plan to higher since they mostly need hosting space without any additional features.
As far as I can see when I create 1GB hosting space addon I can only…

Backup to FTP Step-By-Step to save local disk space
This helpdesk article has only negative reviews, which might imply that other users struggle with the same issue:
https://support.plesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/213391809-Backup-fails-with-error-Not-enough-free-disk-space-to-backup-selected-objectsRight now backing up to FTP means you need to have almost 50% disk space free. That means you can never use more than half the server storage you're paying for, otherwise you'll be unable to make a backup. Especially on AWS disk space is very expensive.
The issue exists because Plesk seems to utilize just plain zip commands with file split. Why not offer an additional backup method, where e.g. all Domains are backuped step-by-step / one-by-one to FTP?
E.g. …1 vote -
expanded options for the amazon S3 backup extension
the current implementation does not offer a number of options for openstack SWIFT compatible storage, notably tenant name/region. but among others - IMHO there should be a mechanism or option to provide the full range of parameters described in the spec.
